Benny Blancois opening up about his relationship with fiancéeSelena Gomez.

The Grammy-nominated producer/musician, 36, revealed in a new cover story forInterviewMagazinehow he and Gomez, 32, balance each other out.

“I have the best time. I’m more of an introvert that can be an extrovert, but the obligation has to be there,” she explained. “So it’s nice to have someone who balances that out and gets me out of the house.”

Blanco added that their dynamic is “so good” because “she calms [him] down when [he] needs it,” and he will get her out of the house.

“She’s the first person that I’ve been with where I’m like, ‘I don’t even give a f— what’s going on. I could sit in this bed with you for 72 hours and feel like I didn’t miss anything,’ ” he explained.

“She’s like my f—ing heroin and Xanax combined,” the producer confessed.

“Whenever I’m feeling anything but perfect, she knows the exact thing to say. I’m so pissed that it took this long. It’s like, ‘How did we not figure this out sooner?’ I’m 36 years old,” he added.

“Timing is everything,” Gomez noted. Before the pair were a couple, they were musical collaborators. Blanco co-produced two songs, “Kill Em with Kindness” and “Same Old Love,” on Gomez’s 2015 album,Revival. They also collaborated on the 2019 song “I Can’t Get Enough,” featuring Tainy andJ Balvin.

Blanco explained to the outlet that before he was with Gomez, he told himself, “ ‘You know what? I’m going to stop everything I’m doing and just focus all my energy on being a grownup and being with the right person.’ ”

“Now I worship the ground she walks on and I feel like she’s the same way to me,” he admitted. “There’s no ego between us. She’s praying for me to win and I’m praying for her to win.”

“And I wake up in the morning—I know she does the same thing—and I’m like, ‘How can I make her life better?’ ” he continued. “Holding her isn’t close enough. I want to be inside of her whole body.”

“I just feel a thing for her that I can’t even explain.” He confessed: “I’m so sappy.”

“I just smile all day,” he added. “I’m so scared she’s just going to wake up and be like, ‘What? No.’ " However, Gomez refuted that and said Blanco is “stuck” with her.
